The Latest

Is anyone watching Big Brother 8? The twist this year is they surprised houseguests by adding "the last person you want to see" to the house. There's an ex-friend, ex-boyfriend and an estranged father/daughter. I feel kinda sorry for the estranged daughter. Should be interesting to see how things play out.

Went to see the movie, Evening. It was okay. Not as good as I expected. Basically, this lady is on her death-bed, her daughter's are on death-watch and the Mom keeps talking out of her head about people the daughters have never heard of. Lots of flashbacks to Mom's life as a young girl and her true love that got away. Pretty much an all-star cast. It's a "renter".

The rain in my part of Oklahoma has FINALLY stopped. I think it rained for 18 or 19 days straight. You should of heard all the lawn mowers (including ours) in the neighborhood yesterday. Everyone's yard practically needs a brush-hog cause everything's so overgrown. Mosquitos are horrible!! But, on the bright side, all the grass is very green and just beautiful once you get it mowed.

My husband and son mowed and edged while I worked in the flower beds for about five hours yesterday. It's RIDICULOUS how out of shape I am. I tell ya, the back of my legs are killing me this morning! I've got to get to the gym.

My daughter's been sick for a few days (fever, achey, nausea). We missed church this a.m. because I wanted her to sleep in. I hope she feels better when she wakes up (and I hope the rest of us don't get it).

My son's going to a birthday party today where he'll ride go-carts that go up to 45 mph. I wish I could go!!! While he's gone I've got to finish laundry and get him packed for a week because he's going to church camp. As soon as he gets home from the party I'll run him to camp.

I weigh-in at WW tomorrow night. I've been kind of "off and on" about tracking points so I'll be happy if I maintain.
